Ed Bastian, CEO of Delta Air Lines, revealed Wednesday that government regulations recently unveiled by the Biden administration could lead to higher ticket prices.

Last week, the Department of Transportation (DOT) announced plans for new rules that would require airlines to compensate passengers and cover expenses for meals and hotel rooms should flights be delayed or canceled within the control of the air carrier.
